Genes cyclically activated by JH through Met—Functional group enrichment and the effects of AAs, 20E and JH.

<p><b>(A)</b> Venn diagram showing genes that are up regulated in late post eclosion (LPE) and late post blood meal (LGs) periods and that are down regulated in Met knocked-down (imet down) fat body tissues. <b>(B-D)</b> Comparison of functional categories viz. <b>(B)</b> Information storage and Processing, <b>(C)</b> Metabolism and <b>(D)</b> Cellular Processes and Signalling, that constitute the late genes (LGs) and cyclical genes (CGs) using the inNOG database. <b>(E-F)</b> Relative expression of gene—AAEL001171, tRNA-dihydrouridine synthase detected by qRT-PCR, in tissues subjected to <i>in-vitro</i> fat body culture (IVFBC) in culture media, <b>(E)</b> without (NT) and with amino acids (AA) and with amino acid plus 20E (AA+20E); <b>(F)</b> without (JH-) and with (JH+) juvenile hormone. <b>(G)</b> Relative expression of the same gene detected by qRT-PCR, in fat body tissues collected from female mosquitoes post Met knock-down (iMet); injecting double stranded RNA for the Luciferase gene (iluc) served as the control. <b>(H)</b> Expression profile of the gene after the first blood meal. <b>(I)</b> Expression profile of the gene after the completion of the first reproductive cycle (egg laying) and post second blood meal. All expression calculated against housekeeping gene RPS7. Data representative of three biological replicates, with three technical replicates and are illustrated as average ± SD, * P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001.
